ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, am in the process of selling up in the UK, and am hoping (pending no hiccups for house sale) to move to Thailand (Khon Kaen) to be with my wife and kids end of august/beginning of September. 

What’s the process to apply for a marriage visa? I already have the 400k baht in a Thai bank account in my name. We have a house (in wife’s name, where we will reside).￼

I read somewhere to apply for a 60 day tourist visa first? 

Any detailed help would be appreciated.. 

Thanks 🙏🏽😀

Or you also can apply for non-o marriage on eVisa to enter Thailand, then apply for extension once you settled in Thailand
